Picture taken inside a major retailer’s last day in business. As I was making this image, the storewide annoucement said, “This store will be closing in 45 minutes. Everything is 90% off.” The tags stuck to the floor tell a story. A long story of all the people who ever worked there and all the remaining employees, who were going to lose their jobs in 45 minutes.
Had to get the truck smogged. I got to the shop 30 minutes early so I dug out the camera and noticed I was in a target rich environment. Karl's is sort of a shade-tree mechanic place, but he knows his stuff.
Our village is very pretty. Last year there was a plan to modernise St Anne's shopping centre off the High Street. Businesses were brought up and ambitious plans were tabled to make a mini shopping outlet mall. The news about HS2 spooked the investors or so it is said. They pulled out and we are left with a number of empty shop premises. They are slowly crumbling.
